2'19''[327]: Yahoo spend 1.1 billion ,fifth of its cash, to buy T's blogging service, on purpose of boosting its social communication service with young generation.This event has not earn revenue for yahoo yet. Yahoo's business is declining due to its absence of social and mobile service. For this reason, the deal worth it. However, because its revenue is shrinking, yahoo needs to lift its revenue, but this deal seems not helping. This deal is launched by its new CEO who intend to revitalize Yahoo.
2'15''[326]: T is popular, with tens of millions of monthly unique visitors. Analysts are questioning what T could bring to Yahoo after the merge. Yahoo expects the merge will boost its revenue in 2014. Yahoo could boost the revenue of T by combining the website with its own sales force. But this action might be risky, because it might alienate its users, so it probably wouldn't provide a significant lift to Yahoo's overall revenue .
The CEO said the merge is an exception. It seems that they are not going to have a lot of similar merger in the future.
55''[199]: One of the issue faced by yahoo is that there are a lot of Porn contents in T. Yahoo's tool allows advertiser to zero in on specific demographics and contents. Yahoo want to vamp up advertising on T's dashboard. But T's CEO seems less interested in money than in the prominence of T.
2'49''[361]: Yahoo bought T's blogging service for 1.1 billion. Why does T fit in the strategy of yahoo? Yahoo needs to broaden its audience. What does the acquisition mean to mobile industry in the future. Nowadays, people intend to use social and mobile service to communicate. This deal suggests the future role of this industry. The battle is just beginning . Yahoo, google, and facebook, no one has won yet.
2'04''[326]: why do T's users react negatively about the acquisition? Other social website revolt has similar effects. The miserable reputation of Yahoo's CEO of taking on new companies and doing nothing with them. An advice for Yahoo is do not make radical changes and leave T alone, otherwise the audience will defect. But Yahoo can build T's advertising model, and T could prompt Yahoo with T's non-advertising content marketing . Content marketing seems less alienating to young audiences. Generally these mergers do not work. There are a lot of merger failures.
obstacle: [908]
6'22'': The react of users of T to the acquisition is not satisfactory. Why do they leave? T provides its members a rich medium to voice their views. In return, it enjoys their fierce loyalty.
But now they think Yahoo is betraying for buying that loyalty.
Where do they go? It seems that young users from 18-24 has less alternatives, as there is no similar forum.
Yahoo should not only limit the exit of its user, instead, it needs to build greater loyalty by enhancing users voice .
It also needs to learn more through the acquisition and transform itself under the guidance of T.
Recently , we have not see the will of Yahoo to make any change, but the success depends on it. |
